BACKGROUND

The invention relates to a device and a method for the electrical testing of an electrical component. The term “electrical component” is understood to be defined in wide terms here. It covers all objects which including electrical contacts, electrical conductors, electrical conductor lines, electrical devices, electrical component groups, etc., for example.

SUMMARY

The object of the invention is to provide a device and a method for the electrical testing of an electrical component which make the electrical testing more effective, more reliable, and consequently more energy-efficient.

The invention will become apparent from the features of the independent claims. Advantageous further developments and embodiments are the subject matter of the dependent claims. Other features, possible applications and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following description, as well as the explanation of example embodiments of the invention shown in the figures.

A first aspect of the invention relates to a device for the electrical testing of an electrical component, the electrical component including at least one electrical contact point. Electrical contacts are plugs, sockets, electrical contact points, etc., for example. The device further includes an interface for providing the electrical component. This interface may be a box, a shelf, a bracket, or a pallet, for example, on/in which the one component or multiple components are provided. The provision of the component at the interface can also advantageously be actively done mechanically. In this case, a component is advantageously actively “held” in a specific orientation at the interface. The interface is then preferably designed as a robot manipulator which provides the component at a specific position in a specific orientation by means of its effector.

The device further includes a first robot manipulator having an effector, which is configured and constructed for picking up, handling and releasing the electrical component. Robot manipulators with relevant mechanical effectors are sufficiently known in the state of the art. The first robot manipulator may in particular also be part of another system, for example, a humanoid robot.

The device further includes a mechanical receiving interface into which the electrical component can be inserted. This receiving interface is advantageously designed as a recess or trough having geometry which matches that of the electrical component. The component can advantageously be fixed into the mechanical receiving interface after insertion, for example, through the use of an appropriate spring mechanism which holds the inserted component into the receiving interface. The device further includes a contacting device having at least one movable electrical counter contact, wherein the contacting device is positioned in a first state in such a manner that space is available for the first robot manipulator to be able to insert/remove the electrical component into/from the receiving interface, and wherein the contacting device and, in particular, the counter contact is positioned in a second state in such a manner that the at least one counter contact is connected to the contact point of the electrical component which has been inserted into the receiving interface. In one design, the contacting device includes the receiving interface.

The suggested device further includes an analysis unit connected to the at least one counter contact, the analysis unit being configured and constructed to perform electrical testing of the component using the electrical connection of counter contact and contact point, i.e. with the existence of an electrical connection between the component and the analysis unit, in the second state and to provide and/or output a test result. During the electrical testing, electrical voltages, electrical currents, time response, electrical signals and signal characteristics, signal responses from the component, etc. are recorded and analyzed. The electrical testing is, in particular, used for quality control and/or functional testing of the respective electrical component.

Finally, the device includes a control unit for the automated control of the first robot manipulator and the contacting device. The contacting device is advantageously driven by an actuator in order to be moved from the first state to the second state and vice versa. Of course, devices for the electrical testing of components with a passive design, i.e. that have no actuators which actively establish the first and second state, can also be used in principle. For this type of use case, the contacting device is advantageously transferred from the first state to the second state and vice versa by the robot manipulator. To this end, the robot manipulator moves a corresponding flap, for example, on which the at least one counter contact is arranged from one position to the other, wherein one of the positions denotes the first state and the second position denotes the second state.

An advantageous further development of the device is characterized in that the control unit is designed as a variant from the following list:

-   -   As a central control unit for joint, e.g. coordinated         control/regulation of the first robot manipulator and the         contacting device and the analysis unit,     -   Having a first sub-control unit solely for the         control/regulation of the first robot manipulator and a second         sub-control unit for the coordinated control/regulation of the         contacting device and the analysis unit,     -   Having a first sub-control unit solely for the         control/regulation of the first robot manipulator and a third         sub-control unit solely for the coordinated control/regulation         of the contacting device and a fourth sub-control unit for the         control/regulation of the analysis unit.

An advantageous further development of the device is characterized in that the control unit is configured and constructed to execute the following first control program. The first control program is characterized in that in the first state the first robot manipulator is controlled such that the first robot manipulator picks the electrical component up from the interface with the effector and carries the electrical component along a predefined trajectory with a target orientation O_(soll)(R_(T)) to the receiving interface, wherein a target orientation O_(soll)(R_(T)) is defined for the component along the trajectory T for positions R_(T) of the trajectory T, wherein force controlled and/or impedance controlled rotational movement and/or tilting movements and/or translational movement patterns of the electrical component and/or desired force screw patterns of the electrical component are made for the insertion of the component into the receiving interface by the first robot manipulator, until a predefined limit value state G1 for a torque acting on the effector and/or a predefined limit value state G2 for a force acting on the effector is reached or exceeded and/or an allocated force/torque signature and/or a position/speed signature is reached or exceeded on the effector, which indicates/indicate that the insertion of the electrical component into the receiving interface within predefined tolerances has been successfully completed.

The term “signature” here describes a predefined parameter data set with assigned values and/or interval limits and/or a predefined time response of a predefined parameter data set for identification of the successful completion of the insertion of the electrical component into the receiving interface. The signature thus describes a combination of parameters and/or their time responses. Thus, for example, a predefined force-time response may define the successful completion of the insertion of the electrical component.

The tilting movements of the component are advantageously periodic and/or closed movements in all cases in this description. The tilting movements are advantageously made relative to the target orientation O_(soll)(R_(T)) of the component. The tilting movements advantageously occur around one, two or three tilt axes. A “closed” tilting movement is understood here to mean a movement in which an initial orientation O(t₀) of the component is modified by the tilting movements, and this orientation exists once again after a time Δt: O(t₁)=O(t₀), where t₀<t₁, t₁=t₀+Δt.

Depending on the use case, the rotational and/or tilting movements may also be aperiodic movements or a combination of aperiodic and periodic movements.

The rotational and/or tilting movements are most preferably carried out continuously during insertion of the component into the receiving interface.

The control unit is advantageously configured and constructed to execute the following second control program: in the first state, the first robot manipulator is controlled such that the electrical component is released by the effector (mechanically released) after successful completion of insertion of the electrical component into the receiving interface and the effector is moved away from the receiving interface by the first robot manipulator along the predefined end trajectory A.

The control unit is advantageously configured and constructed to execute the following third control program: the first robot manipulator is controlled/regulated such that the first robot manipulator causes the effector to make force controlled and/or impedance controlled rotational and/or tilting movements (relative to a predefined target orientation of the effector) and translational movement patterns of the effector. This facilitates the separation between the effector and the electrical component.

The control unit is advantageously configured and constructed to execute the following fourth control program: in the first state, the robot manipulator is controlled such that an electrical component inserted into the receiving interface is picked up by the effector after completion of electrical testing of the component in the second state and carried from the receiving interface along a predefined end trajectory B to a predefined set-down position by the first robot manipulator and released there.

The contacting device advantageously includes a second force controlled and/or impedance controlled and/or admittance controlled robot manipulator, wherein the at least one electrical counter contact is arranged on the effector of the second robot manipulator.

The contacting device is advantageously mechanically rigidly connected to the second robot manipulator.

The analysis unit is advantageously configured and constructed to measure electrical signals from the electrical component via the electrical connection between the counter contact and the contact point and to compare them with predefined target information, and to provide and/or output the comparison result thus achieved as the test result.

The electrical component may be an individual electrical component, for example a capacitor, an inductor or a resistor, a printed circuit board equipped with multiple electrical components, a bare printed circuit board, or a complete electrical device (for example, a smartphone, an amplifier, a radio, etc.).

The at least one electrical contact point and the at least one counter contact are advantageously implemented as multipole contacts. A variety of complex electrical analyses and tests can thus be performed on the component.

An advantageous further development of the device is characterized in that the control unit is configured and constructed to execute the following fifth control program: wherein the first robot manipulator makes the tilting movements of the electrical component relative to its target orientation O_(soll)(R_(T)) on one, two or three tilt axes, wherein the tilt angle is in an angle range of up to ±1°, ±2°, ±5°, ±7°, ±10°, ±12°, ±15° to a target orientation O_(soll)({right arrow over (R)}_(T)). The rotational movements are advantageously periodically performed, i.e. a left-hand rotation is followed by a right-hand movement, wherein the angle of rotation is advantageously identical in each case. The rotational movements advantageously follow a rotation range of: ±1°, ±2°, ±5°, ±7°, ±10°, ±12°, ±15°.
